Polish food in Pictures.

It's in Polish cook book I have. It's very simple: water, barley, bone, some vegetables, some podroby and voila!

yeah, krupnik's good stuff:

what do i ask for in a store...?

That krupnik I'm going to try when I'll go to Poland in June. I never had that. I had a lot of miód pitny but never krupnik.


Serca, płucka, whatever they have is good.

yeah.... i'll give it a try.... i'm craving ogórkowa too...

do you gugl or bing?

Oh, I forgot potatoes. Pokrojone w kostkę. Once I forgot about them and it was not good.

i google... whatever that means ... ;)

i'm asking because i used to try recipes from there and it was yucky... so maybe PF members eat better... ;)


OK... do you add sliced mushrooms?

Borowiki are the best. But pieczarki will do.

i'd kill for some... lol

definitely do:

that doesn't do the trick at all... lol

you ought to try it before you turn up your nose at it, missy.

My pierogi. Don't mind the paper plate. I boil the pierogi from the frozen state, take the soften pierogi and then saute it with chopped wild mushroom and onion in olive oil and butter. Tastes very good, and even with pepper.

That's how I do them too. I wish I knew how they cook them in my local bar - they are always shiny with fat but never stodgy or greasy.

It also depends the type of dough the pierogi is made of. Here in Chicago we have one of the highest quality kinds known as Kasia's. I personally think too much grease and fat is disgusting....but whatever suits you lol.

olive oil AND butter???

alexandra's pierogi are the shizit tho.

Had peirogis last night. so good. my favorite are patotes peirogi. with me living with two Polish people I have them every week.

Straight from the Easter table today:

• 
  white borsch
  
• 
  mushroom stuffed eggs w/horseradish
  
• 
  vegetable salad
  
• 
  variety of cold cuts
  

Looks good. I like the the dish for stuffed eggs; perfect shape :)

white borscht with red sausage? that's different.. hmm

We just had some rosół for Easter yesterday.

• 
  
  

Why so much carrots? I can't have anything but makaron swimming there.

It's good for you--didn't you ever hear that carrots are good for your eyesight !!!!!

I know they are healthy (did you ever see a rabbit in eyeglasses?) but they are making rosół too sweet.

It's a myth with interesting history:

Yep, that's how we do it.

• 
  Galaretka anyone? :)
  
• 
  How about a beet salad?
  

it's been a decade at least :(

Is this what you prefer now? :)

• 
  Good, ol', all american meal..
  

not at all but that doesn't look bad.. but i don't know how to make galaretka stuff.. maybe it hasn't been that long.. if czerwone jabluszko has it on the buffet. lol
